An exchange gives the following receipt for makingwood go a long; way: “Leave it out doors.” A resident of Richmond ‘Hill. havingtried this plan finds it to acc- omplish all that is claimed for it.

During the past few weeks the side- walks in our village have been in a. dis- graceful condition. After storms in many places they were not shovelled at: all and in others just; a walk wide enough for one to pass through. \Vhen it thaws the walks in many places are flooded with water or several inches deep with slush. There is some loud complaining and the matter should be looked after. \Vhat are our villiage fathers thinking about? The Ball J ubilee Singers. The Ball Family of Jubilee singers gave a. successful series of Sacred Concerts in the Methodist Churches on this circuit as followe: Monday night at Maple; Tues- day at Edgely; Wednesdav at Richmond Hill; last night at Victoria Sqare. On each occasion there Were crowded houses and the audiences were delighted with their singing, which was of the regular Jubilee or glanmtion style and was rep- eatedly encored. They would receive a hearty welcome where they to visit this vicinity again. Almost Serious. On Saturday the Patterson Agricultur- al Works had a narrow escape from the devouring flames. In tempering the teeth for their famous Spring Tooth Harrows a large vat of oil is used in which the teeth are dipped. This took fire from the heat of the steel, and the blaze was soon communicated, by means of a wooden pipe,to thefimof, where for a time it was thought the whole works would fall alprey totthe raging element. The men, however, went to work with an energy which did them credit, and soon had entirely subdued the flames. The damage will not be very heavy. Many Newspapers and Magazines have been established in the United States and Canada. within the last two years, the names of which do not appear in ‘any Newspaper Directory or Catalogue. The publishers and editors of such are invited to sendvcopies and a full description of their respective publications to the, Edit- or of Hubbard‘s Newspaper and Bank Directory of the world, New Haven, Conn, U. S. A., that they may be prop- erly catalogued and described in the forthcoming edition ofthat Work for 1883. Editors who kindly give this notice an insertion in their cnlvmns will confer a favor upon the Press of America. Literary and Musical Society. On Tuesday evening the members of the Presbyterigm_Musica.l and Literary Society held their last meeting for the season. The discussion on the sub- ject “Resolved that it would be for the benefit of society that Woman should have an equalc'hance with man in the pursuits of life” was an exceedingly an- imated afi lively (me. Excellent argum- ems were advanced on both sides. The Chairman, the Rev. I. Campbell, in sum- ming up, gave a definite opinion in favor of the Negative, but omits being left to the audience the decision “as given in favor of the Affirmative, by a. majority of two or three votes. As will be seen .by reference to another column, the advertisement of the old and reliable Cambridgeshire Clothing House, 86 Yonge St“, Toronto, again appears on our pages. Though the business has changed hands it is still in the first ranks of the clothing trade, and in order to still farther establish itself it feels the necessity of being 1'0 presented through the colums of THE LIBERAL, which is fast becoming recognised by the business men of Toronto as one of the best advertising mediums in the county. Any persons requiring neat and stylish garments could not do better than give Mr. Holtby, the genial manager, acall, and Mr. John D. Coulter, formerly of this village,will give them perfect fits every time. Mr; Coulter has charge of the tailoring department. The Lacrosse Concert in the Masonic Hall on Good Friday evening, was a. decided success. The programme was an unusually good one,‘and rendered in first class style. in every part. Among the performers were Mrs. Johns, of Thom- hill, Miss Willis, of Aurora, Mr. Stewart, Woodbridge, ’Missos Coulter, W'ilson, and Nicholle and Messrs Sanderson and Hume and and the Glee Club of Rich- mond Hill. But theattmctiou and star of the eVening was Mrs. Bradley, of Toronto. Her selections were charming, and her voice is equalled by few singers in Canada. She more than delighted the audience and was frequently encored. There was an excellent house. Dr. \Vil- son presided. The Club realized over $20 after all costs were paid. Waiked Away. A few evenings ago Rev. W. J. Bark- well, B..A.-ca11ed at the LIBERAL office on business, bl-anketing, ‘ and, as he supposed tying his horse. After attend- ing to his business which took fifteen or twenty minutes, on geing to the door what was his surprise to find his hnrse gone. Thinking. some person had taken the horse to the stable of some friend he proceeded toftind it, 'but a. diligent sear- ch failed to reveal its? whereabouts. TheRev. gentleman concluded it had got To Pubhshers and Editors. Disgrac efal Sidewalks. Lacrosse Concert. Pushing Busmess. loose and made its way to Maple. After starting in pursuit he was entormed that his horse was caught walking along the street in the village and was tipd in the shed af thePalmer House. He thinks he must have forgotter to tie it. The subject was that portion of our Saviour’s life from the time of the institu- tion of the Last Supper to the Ascension. The Essays, of which there were quite a number, were very creditable to the authors, and were submitted to the criti- cism of the Rev. J. Dick, P. Patterson, Esq” and Dr. Wilson, who were requir- ed to act as Judges. The fi1st prize for the Uirls was awarded to Miss Lena Wiley. For the second two were equally good bv Miss Minnie Harvey. and Miss Mary Miller. To each was awarded an excell- ent Bible. The first prize for boys, A Casquet of Poems was carried off by Master Charles Storey, and second a. bible, by Master Alexander Mac- donald. The books were presented to the successful cnmpetors by the Super- intent, Mr. Conger, of Patterson, and the Editor of the LIBERAL. A large number of parents and fiiends were present The Pproceedinus were enlivened by smur- ing appropriate Hymns and will long be remembered by the Scholars. Essays and Prizes. Last Sunday the Essays written fur the prizes offered by Mrs. Addison, to the Scholars of the Methodist. Sunday School here, were read and the prizes awarded. Rumor saith that a respectible gentle- man of our village, whose name we will withold, decided on having a. pleasure drive on Sunday afternoon, and to that end engaged the very best livery rig the place could afford. After treating a respectable young lady to a drive he visited a western suburb near the railway station. .Where the laws of God and man are alike a dead letter, and Sunday is one of the seven days of the week. Here his sails caiwht too much wind and when he got back to Richmond Hill about 9.1). n1. he was seen to drive on nor.thward but had not reached the dimits (if the corpor- ation when by some means the 1101 so, cutter and contents were in a heap in the ditch. Some young people who happen- ed to be enjoying the evening-hearing the filse went to his assistance, and help- ed to extricate him from his difficulty. The young men, with dfiiculty got the man the horse and the rig to a hotel in the village by taking each separately. The horse was somewhat injured and the rig almost demolished. It will cost him ‘ something for repairs to the rig but still more to repair his character. Such ocâ€" currences in a. place li‘k-B‘Richmoud Hill. and by men fromiwhom we might expect better are simply disgraceful. About Country Newspapers. An exchange hits the nail on the head inathei’following: It is absurd for the resid- ents of rural municipalities to suppose that because they get large city weeklies for the same money that they pay for a good local paper. that they receive more value for: their intoney.,'ll‘his isa mistak- en idea. Any man who takes the least interest in the afieirs of his township or county, if he can afl'ord only one paper, should take the one published in his own county. The local paper furnishes its readers with the news of the entire dis- trict, market reports, agricultural news; county, town and township council re- ports- accounts of agricultural societies and shows; and local news generally, none of which the city papers can pretend to do. Itwill thus be seen that neither the Globe, Mail, or any other city weekly can supply the places of the local paper, glib-tongued agents to the contrary vnot- withstanding. To which do the people look when there is some local scheme to be advocated? Dorthcy run to the city papers? No; for they ‘know it would be of no use to do so. Then the country press should let those who take a. city weekly in preference to a local paper go to the city editors for any favors they may ask. A good live paper is the best institution any town can possess, Mr. and Mrs. McBride have ~been spending the Easter halédays with .their friends at Owen Sound. Mr. Keefler, member of the House of Commons for Lunenburg, Nova. Scotin, has been visiting: his friends here during the Easter vacation of Parliament.
